new adult

I was recently very fortunate to be invited by Simon & Schuster to travel to Sydney for a couple of awesome reasons. The first was to meet with a group of readers and do a live book club discussion of The Yearning, which was just wonderful.

New Adult is a relatively new genre, a bastard love child of a ménage between Young Adult, Romance and Erotic fiction. It features predominantly attractive 17+yo characters in college (university for Aussies) and are just starting to find their way in the adult world.
